Some album artwork missing only when viewed in tile mode.

Hello, after Restoring to new (to clear up an issue with excessive "other") and updating iPod 5 to iOS 7.1, which corrected issues, I have found an odd glitch with music. Four album covers are missing when viewed in tile mode only. You see them otherwise when viewed any other way, everything plays as it should, it's just there not there in tile view mode, what you do see is black background with white letters telling you the album title and artist name. Have tried powering down, soft reset, Reset All Settings. Going into get info and tapping get artwork. Erasing effected music and syncing albums back into iPod. Erasing entire music library and then reinstalling, and Restore from backup. The same four albums do not appear in tile mode. All effected albums were purchased through iTunes. As far as I know the only other thing to try is the Restore to new, is there something else to try? Thanks.

Sorry Illaass, been there, done that. No joy! Used the suggested method to delete before posting this. (Picked it up from you when you helped someone else with a similar problem-- it worked for them, but not with this one). It's kinda looking like restoring to new? (Please tell me something else... It's such a pain.)

  • Why does the album artwork appear only when the first song is playing only?

    Why does the album artwork appear only when the first song is playing only?

    Hello ckuan. Thx for your reply.
    The songs are not from iTunes, they are from CDs that I had copied to my itunes library.
    It is worth mentioning that I wasn't facing this issue before IOS 5.

  • ICloud has added some albums more than once when viewed on my iPad.Is it possible to delete the unwanted extra copies.

    How do I erase unwanted albums from iCloud.On my iPad the same album has been added more than once yet on my mac with iCloud there are no issues.

    I assume you mean photo albums.  How were these albums added in the first place?  Where they created on your iPad?  Do they have the same name?

  • Just bought a nano and want to download some of my iTunes library. The "Music" button shows almost all my selections but some albums are missing, yet thos albums appear on the nano icon on my desktop but none of the others. What's happening?

    Just bought a nano and want to download some of my iTunes library. The "Music" button shows almost all my selections but some albums are missing, yet ONLY those albums appear on the nano icon on my desktop after being dragged there but none of the others. What's happening?
    I've read some of the post here that I thought might help but they refer to titles (Music) and triangles in the "Devices" window which are nowhere to be seen when I open the "Devices" window.
    I have iTunes 11.0.3 and Mac OS 10.6.8. Does this make a difference?

    I should mention that, for the first problem, I do make sure that my new tracks are stored in the folder where I told iTunes that my music is in. Also, when I say the cataloging of my library stops short of cataloging all my songs, I have tried leaving the computer unattended for days (my computer's sleep mode is disabled). It always stops before cataloging all of my music regardless of whether I am doing something else while iTunes is cataloging, or if I just let iTunes be the only program that's open during the cataloging process.

  • ITunes Album Artwork Screensaver Only Showing 3 Album Covers

    I'm trying to use the album artwork screensaver but when it comes on it only shows three repeating album covers, all of which from CDs I downloaded myself and not from the iTunes store. How do I get all my album artwork to show?
    I tried FILE > LIBRARY > GET ALBUM ARTWORK and holding down option while clicking the itunes icon and selecting my iTunes library.

    Hi,
    so this work's for me. Just recreate all the iTunes stuff. I did it like this:
    - Go to - Music / iTunes / iTunes Media and backup the Music and Mobile App folders
    - Delete everyting in the folder iTunes
    Then just open the iTunes and add all the music from the Music folder to the library back again. This will recreate all the library files and folders in the iTunes folder.
    Then try the screen saver.
    Hope it helps.

  • Album Artwork doesn't show up in vertical mode but does in Coverflow

    I have an iPod Touch 4g and im running the newest version of iOS, 4.3.3, and the newest version of iTunes.  Also running OS X Lion 10.7.  The album artwork doesn't show up in vertical mode but does in Coverflow.  Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    Did you already try to activate the artwork visualization in iPod?

  • Playing shared music, some album artwork is missing

    Rather than copy my iTunes library to my Apple TV, I just use the "Shared" feature. But when playing music shared from my Mac, sometimes the Apple TV doesn't display album artwork (i.e., I get the generic album outline with notes in it) for albums that have artwork in my iTunes library. Some of these are even songs purchased from iTunes. The connection is via a wired gigabit network. Any ideas why the artwork doesn't show up?

    Personally I think it's a software glitch that doesn't update teh artwork properly.
    One of the recent iTunes updates lost a load of artwork for me too - things not purchased from the store but recently imported. I somehow feel iTunes is getting a bit too big and bloated with all the different things it has to support.

  • IPhone 5 Missing Some Album Artwork

    I posted this question weeks ago, surprised Apple hasnt communicated a fix/solution to date - Had a iPhone4, with ALL artwork in tact.....upgraded to the 5, and only a portion of the artwork came over on the synch.  I manage my music manually, and 99% of my music has been purchased on iTunes.  There has to be a simple reason, accompanied by a simple solution. Anyone?  It has long past being an annoyance, its become infuriating. 

    This is what I figured out I went back to my itunes 10.7 on my MBP and all my album artwork that was not showing up on my iPhone 5  was showing up in coverflow on my MBP but after closer exam the ones missing from iphone 5 actually were missing from the selected item pane or the drag artwork here area so I downloaded and added my art by going to just the ones that were missing from that or you can get info on selected track and go to art tab and add it there after doing that on the first 25 missing I synced the phone and they all came back. Still don't know how they got stripped out of itunes in the preview but not the coverflow but I guess that's for the Geniuses at Apple to come up with. Apple please don't remove coverflow and Album art people love that dont screw it up
    Make sure you stay away from upgrading to itunes 11 if you love album art and coverflow they have been removed and the new interface is really really complicated and very unappealing graphically

  • ITunes Match music not updating on iPhone 4 - all settings "correct", but all playlists and many songs, artists, albums, artwork missing

    I'm having a maddening problem with iTunes Match on my iPhone 4. I have the following settings established on the phone:
    Settings > iCloud > Account: properly logged in to the correct, main account
    Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > iCloud Backup: On
    Settings > Music > iTunes Match: On
    Settings > Music > Show All Music: On
    Settings > Store: Logged into the same correct, main account as above
    Settings > Store > Automatic Downloads > Music: On
    On my laptop - the computer I use to primarily manage my iTunes music collection - when I "Update iTunes Match", all but three songs are listed as "Matched", "Uploaded". or "Purchased", and I'm correctly told that "12,277 songs are now available in iCloud".
    But over the past week or so, music has been disappearing from my iPhone 4. When I go under Music > Playlists, none of my Playlists are showing. When I go under Music > Songs, it only lists 240 of the 12,277 tracks that are supposedly available in iCloud. Only 126 of around 1300 artists are listed. I have meticulously collected/scanned album artwork for literally every song in my collection, but a ton of it is missing on even the few tracks that do show up on my iPhone, and on and on and on.
    I've been trying switching settings on and off, logging out and back in, waiting minutes, hours, or even days between attempts, running a restore to previous backup for the whole phone, etc. But after days of frustration and time wasted - nothing. And the real kicker is that the whole music collection IS showing up just fine on my wife's iPhone 4 - it just won't work on mine, and it's mostly my music to begin with!
    So why won't my music collection show up on my iPhone 4? What do I do to fix this? How is this worth the money I paid for the Match service?

    Thanks to kirbyfromtrenton, I have tracked down at least a partial fix for this problem:
    1 - Turn off iTunes match in iTunes.
    2 - Turn off iTunes match on the iPhone.
    3 - Close iTunes and reopen.
    4 - Connect your iPhone.
    5 - Go into your music folder for the iPhone and delete all the songs.
    6 - Turn back on iTunes match in iTunes
    7 - Turn back on iTunes match on the iPhone
    All of my music is available once again, although I'm still not seeing my playlists or artwork. That could be because I'm overseas right now with a slow wi-fi connection though.

  • Ipad loses album artwork for purchases when syncing with iTunes?

    I have the latest software upto date for iTunes and my ipad.
    I usually purchase music directly from the iTunes app on my ipad as I find this a lot more convenient, however every so often I need to connect my ipad to my dell laptop to transfer non-iTunes songs.
    When I do so my ipad will always sync with my iTunes and when it does it comes up with a stage saying "copying album artwork", when this happens all my artwork from my most recent purchases on my ipad is deleted.
    The only way I have of rectifying the issue is to delete all the songs with missing album artwork and re-download them which is a lot of hassle.  I'd say the problem happens almost every time I connect my ipad to the laptop.
    Does anyone know why this is or if there's anyway I can turn of this part of the syncing process.  Or if I can just turn of the sync and back up all together, I much preferred it when all this was manual on old iPod classics and that.
    Thanks

    Hey, I was having this problem, too. The solution I've found is to go ahead and plug your iPad (this works with iPhones and iPod touches, too, I think) into your computer and check "Manually Manage Music and Videos." Then you want to click the "On this iPad" tab and scroll to the albums that are missing album artwork. Delete these manually and sync. Then you can uncheck "Manually Manage Music and Videos," check to sync music in the "Music" tab, and apply. After the sync your newest albums that you've downloaded directly on your iPad should be back in your library in the Music app with their album artwork displaying correctly.
    Not sure what causes this, but it seems to almost always happen to me when I use iTunes on my iPad or iPhone to buy things. Sometimes it also happens to items I've purchased from iTunes on my computer as well and that have automatically downloaded to my iOS devices.
    Hope this helps.

  • Can't delete some album artwork & put in new album artwork

    When I got this new iPod (had an older one, pre-color) I used the feature that loads album artwork for you. Fine & dandy, except some of the artwork it found is wrong, wrong, wrong. For instance one of them says "Pure 80s!" which is not the original album's artwork (although, yes, it is an 80s song). I cannot for the life of me get rid of that album cover even though I "delete" it and put the correct album cover in it's place. Any help on this, or am I stuck with "Pure 80s!" instead of the real cover art from the original album the song was on? Argh!! (been trying to fix this intermitantly for several months). This is just one instance, there are several others like this and it drives me bonkers because I'm kind of anal.

    Let me clarify one thing. When plugged into the computer & itunes, the album artwork IS correct. When I disconnect and the ipod is on it's own, the artwork is INcorrect.
    Also, I don't sync because I use my laptop which doesn't have enough memory to hold all my music. I do load everything onto an external harddrive, but that is incase of a catastrophic emergency and the whole thing needs to be redone.

  • The column browser is no longer available when trying to view music in iTunes. I'm only able to use the column browser only when viewing playlists. Why?

    I noticed that after one of the recent updates to iTunes, I am unable to view my music using the column browser type view. Only when I select one of my playlists is the music displayed with the column browser. When I select Music to view the contents of my library, only the album covers are displayed on the right side. The old column browser type display is not available any more - it is grayed out. I do have "show list views for all media" checked in my Preferences / General tab.
    Did Apple screw up or is it me?

    You're welcome.

  • Some album artwork won't display on iPad

    Hi guys,
    Some of the song's album artwork won't display on my iPad or iPhone but shows up against each song in the album on iTunes on my Mac. There are entire albums' artwork not showing, yet when I open and play the same song in iTunes on my mac, it's there.
    Any ideas?

    in iTunes, choose to not *display Album Artwork on your iPod*, then sync your iPod, then change it back to display album artwork and sync again. I believe that will fix it.

  • Album artwork missing on iPod, but not in iTunes

    I went tto sync up my iPod Touch because a new song by Gorillaz was free to download (it's Do Ya Thing, great song by the way), but afterwards most of my album artwork was missing. Even stranger, only certain albums have it. All of the artwork is on iTunes. I use windows 7 Ultimate. Is there a bug with iTunes, or did I do something wrong?

    I get this on my iPod Touch 5th gen all the time. I think it just has to do with the files getting corrupted. Try removing the songs/albums with missing artwork from the iPad and then sync them back to the device from the cloud
